But the Porsche power train and suspension sure have some beautiful aluminum castings!
Not sure it would make any sense but what about 928 components? I have heard they are very strong. Might find cheap but still have expensive maintenance items.
As for the Porsche castings, how about recouping some cost and making a IRS

No matter what your steering with the throttle anyway. Right?
